If your little one lights up around animals, loves muddy boots and never tires of being outdoors, The Little Farmers Club at Noah’s Park Farm offers a refreshing alternative to the traditional indoor playgroup. Tucked away in the semi-rural pocket of Carabooda, this nature-inspired farm playgroup has been thoughtfully created for children aged 1 to 5 years, blending hands-on learning, sensory experiences and genuine connection in a calm, unhurried farm setting.
Run by Melissa and Laura, the playgroup takes place at Noah’s Park Farm, the same well-loved property where families can brush gentle Mediterranean donkeys, spend time with friendly goats and sheep, and meet the farm’s shaggy-coated Highland cows, William and Wallace.
It is a working family farm where the animals are noticeably well cared for and where children are encouraged to roll up their sleeves and get involved rather than simply watch from a distance.
Every 90-minute session invites children to slow down, explore and learn through play. Rather than following structured lessons, the mornings are child-led and shaped to nurture curiosity, confidence and creativity.
Families can look forward to farm animal encounters, nature-inspired play invitations, sensory experiences, story time and songs, outdoor exploration and creative invitations, along with plenty of opportunity to connect with other local families.
No two sessions are ever quite the same, with seasonal experiences woven through the term while a familiar rhythm helps children feel settled and secure.
The playgroup runs on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 9:30am to 11:00am, with doors opening from 9:20am. Sessions cost $45 per child, which includes one caregiver, and children under eight months attend free alongside a paying sibling. Group sizes are kept small, with a maximum of around 10 to 12 children per session, so the environment stays intimate and manageable for little ones.
Casual bookings are available, letting families come along to individual sessions when space permits, and bookings can be made through Eventbrite. Because the playgroup operates on a term-by-term basis, it is worth registering your interest with Melissa and Laura at [email protected] or following The Little Farmers Club on Instagram to stay across upcoming dates.
A little preparation goes a long way. Families should pack enclosed shoes, a nut-aware morning tea and a water bottle, plus a keep cup with a secure lid if you would like a tea or coffee while you are there. Much of the experience is outdoors, so dressing for the weather is sensible, whether that means gumboots for muddy mornings or hats and sunscreen on warmer days. Free parking is available onsite, and there are guest toilets on the property for added comfort.
What makes The Little Farmers Club so appealing is that it is not about rushing from one activity to the next. Instead, children are given the space to observe, explore, create and build confidence through real-life experiences in a small, welcoming environment. For families hoping to introduce their little ones to animals, nature and sensory-rich play, and to connect with other local parents along the way, it is a lovely and gentle addition to Perth’s northern suburbs early years offerings.
Good to know: suitable for children aged 1 to 5 years, small group sizes, casual bookings available, child-led and outdoor sessions, farm animal interactions, nature and sensory play, story time included, and free onsite parking.
Whether you are searching for a unique weekday activity or simply hoping to spend a peaceful morning while your child explores the farm, The Little Farmers Club offers a warm and engaging way to start the day.
